Adrianna learned that the pendulum of the grandfather clock in her grandparents'home was about 12 inches long . How long will be a period or full cycle of the pendulum?Round your answer to two decimal places. Type a response

## Step 1The problem involves the calculation of the period of a pendulum. The formula for the period of a pendulum is given by:### where is the period, is the length of the pendulum, and is the acceleration due to gravity.## Step 2In this problem, the length of the pendulum is given as 12 inches. However, the formula requires the length to be in meters. Therefore, we need to convert the length from inches to meters. We know that 1 inch is approximately equal to 0.025. So, we multiply 12 inches by 0.0254 to get the length in meters.## Step 3Next, we substitute the length in meters and the acceleration due to gravity (9.8 m/s^2) into the formula to calculate the period.## Step 4Finally, we round the answer to two decimal places as instructed.
